La Vie En Rose

velvety touch,
with a passionate red.
no special occassion,
just out of the blue.

thank you, for making my day.
did i mention how caring is creepy?
and how insane the intensity gets?

//you and i, strolling along Bakhor street, the oldest street in Lhasa.

Hold me close and hold me fast
The magic spell you cast
This is la vie en rose

Let it Snow

Tibet Travel Tip #07: Expect snow even in summer.

"why didn't we prepare attap chee, sweet syrup, red beans, sweet corn, grass jelly, evaporated milk... ...? HOW UHHH?"

//Qomolangma (Mt Everest) from the border of Tibet
Central Himalayan Region.
~8,850m high.

i've been imagining myself, rooted at the most remote crossroads, hoping for someone to deliver a sign.
and it's less than 2 months before my return.

Lost In Space

//Forsaken sky burial with one too many tourists.

Tibet Travel Tip #06: Stupas mark the sacred spots. Knockovers and destroyers of pilgrims' commemorative stone shrines will be more susceptible to karmic emanations most possibly in the form of severe AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness), otherwise known as Altitude Sickness.


Tibet Travel Tip #05: Savour the taste of cotton-candied clouds on the highest pass.

Tibet Travel Tip #04: Ready the head gears, coupled with sunscreen and tripled with shades to filter away the scorching UV rays.
*Cowboy hats recommended for brokeback-ers.
*SPF50 works best. Bananaboat for arms and legs, Clinique for face.


Tibet Travel Tip #03: Water parade a must in the driest of lands.
*Nivea All Day Aqua Moisturizer & Vaseline Lip Therapy recommended.
Tibet Travel Tip #02: Dicks for the men, poncho /long skirts /pee pots /bladders with infinite capacity for the ladies on an arduous road trip.
*TR (aka Toilet Roll), a magnanimous saviour with the biggest heart.



Feels just so fine
When we touch the sky me and you
This is my idea of heaven
Why can't it always be so good

Tibetan faces

Tibet Travel Tip #01: Spread the love to those who sparkle at the sight of life's simple delights.
Sweets, pencils, paper, and even a peek at your digi screen will illuminate the young Tibetan faces.
Christmas is not the only time to play Santa.


it was him,


who stole my heart away.
